Author's rights
We are buying first world-exclusive serial and electronic rights, translation rights, non-exclusive world anthology and audio rights, from the date the contract is signed and paid for up until 1 year (12 months) after the publication date. After 1 year (12 months), we’ll retain non-exclusive distribution rights.
Additional info
Fiction: looking for sci-fi as hard as Liu Cixin and Peter Watts and as wonderfully poetic as Arkady Martine; fantasy and magical realism in the vein of Andrzej Sapkowski, Naomi Novik, and Marlon James; we want horror and New Weird stories that would challenge our preconceived notions and perception of reality like Mark Z. Danielewski, Thomas Ligotti, and China Mieville. What we don’t want: Stories lacking class consciousness, Retellings of Christo-Judean or any other religious mythology ‘with a twist’; Stories based around racial slurs; Stories based on your TTRPG adventures; Stories where rape/abuse is the sole character development tool; Revenge fantasies; Rape fantasies English/Ukrainian/Polish/Russian/Romanian/German – we do translations. Each Three Crows Magazine issue features a single piece of artwork that will serve as the cover all editions of that issue.
